Chapter 818 Have You Lost Everything?

Braxton Pearce was clearly the most powerful member of the Pearce family.

Braxton stared at Valerie before turning to Skylar and asked, "Your name is Skylar?"

"I heard from Lola that it was because of you that Valerie suffered a severe head injury, resulting in memory confusion."

Skylar made no attempt to refute it and simply replied, "Yes, Mr. Braxton, Valerie's brain injury was indeed caused by me."

"You didn't avoid responsibility, so you still have a conscience."

Braxton's face softened slightly, but before Skylar could respond, he continued, "You have harmed my granddaughter, and you must compensate for medical expenses and lost wages, not to mention mental anguish."

"Without you, Valerie could have become a big star, but her memory confusion has seriously harmed her future."

"Because you voluntarily escorted Valerie back, I only ask for $5 billion in compensation."

"Once the money is transferred, you must immediately leave the Pearce family, Southville, and guarantee that you will have no further contact with Valerie."

"If you fulfill all of these conditions, then our accounts will be settled."

Skylar expressed his displeasure after hearing Braxton's statements, saying, "Compensating five billion is not a problem, but I cannot promise to cut off contact with Valerie."

Valerie suffered from memory loss as a result of being shoved down for protecting Lola. Skylar would be willing to spend not only $5 billion, but even $10 billion or $100 billion.

Money, after all, was just a number to him.

However, he refused to leave after paying the money and never spoke to Valerie again. He couldn't pull it off.

He arrived to the Pearce home to assist Valerie in regaining her memory.

In Valerie's current state, if he abruptly vanished, she might be even more traumatized and never heal in this lifetime.

So he could agree to any amount of money, but breaking touch was out of the question.

He would not agree, at least not until Valerie was fully recovered.

Rhett Miller became serious after Skylar genuinely refused Braxton's offer.

"Skylar, right?"

"I heard you have a four-year-old daughter named Lola," I said.

Skylar abruptly turned his head and locked his stare on Rhett.
